Although I've lived in Southern, California all of my life, I was born between Naples and Rome in Italy. I've always been a hopeless romantic. I lost my wife of 22yrs to ovarian cancer 12 yrs ago. She was only 44. I still believe in love, but only with the right person. I've owned my home outright since I built it in 1980. I'm searching for someone honest and sincere, and not into playing games. I abhor anyone who wants to play games with people's lives. I still look much younger than my age, and I'm not quite retired. I will respond to anyone who sends me an email. I'm waiting.....
